The next chapter is finally here. Here you go. Hope you like it.
I was woken up by a sudden lack of warmth.
After slightly shifting and feeling my way around I knew that Magnus indeed isn't next to me anymore. A fact that I didn't like so much.
I groaned and pulled the covers more up to get a little bit warmer before finally giving in and opening my eyes.
Magnus was sitting at the very edge at the bottom of the bed, putting on a shirt, already with pants on.
"I'm sorry love but there is an annoying client that won't leave me alone if I don't go make a spell for him right now."He said, sensing I'm awake.
I sighed and buried my head into the pillows. Not wanting him to go but also knowing that it's his job and he doesn't have much of a choice in the matter. Even though there were times when he got so fed up with it that he turned some of his clients into animals for being too annoying and then refused to change them back for as long as a week.
Hopefully something like that won't happen again, or at least not in the near future.
I felt a shifting on the bed as he moved towards me right before a kiss was pressed onto my exposed cheek.
"I'll try and get it over with fast so I can get back to you ok. And try and get a few hours of sleep will you. You came home late from the hunt yesterday." He said passing a hand softly through my hair.
I smiled at how he said home but still didn't look up at him. My face still buried into the pillows.
"Cant. I'm too cold." I mumbled.
Magnus chuckled before summoning and covering me with a blanket. The added layer was indeed making me a little warmer.
"Better?" He asked and I finally turned to look at him, a small smile playing on my lips.
"A little." I answered as our eyes met.
He cherished my cheek before ducking down and pressing his lips on mine for a sweet kiss.
"Good." He whispered against my lips after the kiss.
He pecked my lips one more time before leaning away again and pulling the blanket more up my shoulders so it was covering my neck now also.
"Before I go do you want anything I can snap you in for breakfast for when you get up?" He asked as he got up.
I hummed thoughtfully and snuggled more into the blankets before answering with a smile. "Lucky Charms."
Magnus raised an eyebrow at me questioningly. "Lucky Charms?"
"Yes. They are Max's favorites. And I've actually gotten used to the too sweet flavor by now that I miss it." I explained giving him a small smile.
"Lucky Charms it is then." He said bending down and giving me one last kiss before walking towards the door. "Sweet dreams Alec darling."
I hummed in agreement instead of answering.
"Don't turn another one into a goat please." I called after him just as he stepped out of the door and went to close it again.
He laughed. "I'm feeling in a mood for goldfish this week." He called back. "Love you."
"Love you too."
And just as I said it the door clicked closed but I didn't need to see to know that he was smiling at the words just like every time I say it. Smiling just like I was not from hearing the same from him.
I sighed happily and ducked completely under the blanket before closing my eyes to go back to sleep. And a few minutes later I did just that. Thoughts of Magnus and his smile lulling me to a peaceful and warm sleep.
…
"I know you're there!" Boomed the man's voice through the intercom again. "I can sense the heat of a living body. And it's not your stupid excuse of a cat."
Chairman hissed next to me as I just continued eating my cereal.
The man-or from what I got out of his words The Warlock-has been annoying me for the last half an hour. Refusing to go and just constantly demanding for Magnus to let him in. Magnus who still hasn't come back.
And I'm as hell not going to let him in. He doesn't sound so stable and surely wouldn't like that much to find a Shadownunter waiting for him if I do.
"Magnus you piece of shit let me up!" I rolled my eyes as he continued with the insults.
Will he just leave already?! I thought starting to think about going back to the bedroom; at least it wouldn't be as loud as here.
The insults suddenly stopped and everything went quiet.
Is he gone? I thought but still couldn't relax. If anything the sudden quiet was making me tense up as I eyed the door from my spot on one of the armchairs I turned around to face it.
After a minute I could pick out a faint sound of footsteps on the other side of the door and-with the bowl still in one hand-I grabbed one of the three seraph blades next to me just as there was a loud explosion and the door broke under red sparks. Sent flying to the ground.
My instincts kicking in immediately I whispered the blades name before I sent it flying towards the intruder.
All happening in a few seconds.
As everything calmed down and the sparks died down I could see a very shocked Warlock pinned to the wall with a seraph blade stuck in the wall, caught into his shirt and only a hair length away from his neck.
Perfect. I grinned as I saw him look at me in frozen shock. Not able to move because one little move can and will press that blade to his skin and burn it.
Feeling completely at ease now I took another spoonful of cereal as our eyes met.
The second he got over his initial shock he brought his left hand slowly up. Sparks beginning to form already. But he didn't have time to finish casting a spell at me as I took another blade, said its name and threw it perfectly, pinning his hand to the wall completely.
Just this time throwing it closer so it did burn the flesh. Just enough to hurt as a warning to not to even try to do that again.
He hissed in pain, doing his best not to move, and glared at me.
"You know I'm really good at hitting something at short distance." I mused watching him as I continued eating. "So don't you dare do anything again or next time I will aim at the heart."
He cursed.
"What are you doing here Nephilim? Did that bastard break your precious law?" He spit at me, still glaring in disgust and hatred. "Are you going to arrest me too now? Make up something about me going against the Clave?"
I ignored most of that, refusing to let him get on my nerve easily.
"The better question is what are you doing here? Breaking down his door." I said and he growled when I still stayed relaxed.
"That's none of your business."
"Well since you're not going anywhere, and I'm not going anywhere and Magnus is still out why don't you make it my business." I said calmly and took one last bite before putting the-now empty-bowl down and leaning more comfortably into the armchair.
Making him glare at me even harder. It was obvious he was getting more and more pissed by the second.
"When Bane comes back and catches you here you're going to be dead." He spit out at me only to wince when he accidentally moved resulting in both blades burning his skin.
"Careful there."
He growled again and then cursed under his breath since he couldn't move or cast a spell on me. Something I was sure he would love.
I stayed silent and just watched him. He didn't seem to have any visible Warlock marks and since he needed to point to do a spell he didn't seem to be a very old and powerful one either.
Well that makes it easier for me. I thought.
The cat that went to hide in the bedroom when the door exploded was slowly coming back out. Looking alert as he made his way to me and demanded to be picked up.
I picked him up and let him lay comfortably onto my lap but my eyes still didn't stray from the intruder.
As the time flew by in silence he seemed to have gotten more and more on edge while I just continued patting Chairman as he purred happily.
The footsteps were the first thing I heard before I saw Magnus in the hallway. As he came to the doorway he stopped and looked down at the broken door on the floor.
"What the hell happened here?" He asked, looking up at me and then at the guy still pinned on the wall as he stepped inside.
Chairman brought his head up and looked at Magnus as he heard his voice, ears flying up. He jumped down from my lap and ran to him. Rubbing against his ankle.
"This guy got too impatient and needed to see you right away." I explained getting up and walking closer.
"So you decided it's a good idea to break down my door?" Magnus looked at him angrily. "That's not very smart. I was fond of that door." A few blue sparks flew from Magnus's fingertips.
"There is a Shadowhunter in your loft who tried to kill and you are angry about your door?!"
"Yes I am." Magnus said just as I rolled my eyes and replied to him comment. "If I wanted to kill you I would have."
"You little bastard just wait until I get free of this. I'll kill you." The Warlock glared at me again.
"If you value your existence you will do nothing." Magnus said coldly, eyes flashing.
"What the hell Bane?! Now you're siding with The Clave?" The guy looked very angry now.
"No. I'm siding with my boyfriend who actually lives here." He said taking me by surprise at how easily he just said it.
"Wait what?" He looked taken aback.
I smirked as I stepped towards The Warlock and pulled the first seraph blade out, the one by his hand. "The reason I didn't let you in is because Downworlders aren't very happy when they find out that piece of information. The fact that you then went to break doors isn't my problem." I pulled the other one out too, freeing him, before stepping back towards Magnus.
He blinked at the both of us. It looked that it was hard to understand all of this. It almost made me laugh. Almost.
"Now you will fix my door and leave. You've done enough damage here." Magnus spoke up.
Seemingly still in some kind of daze he did as he was told without any arguments.
"Oh and just so you know." I called after him as he turned to leave. "I'm not very fond of The Clave so stop judging me like I am. I have nothing to do with them."
"I'm sorry." He quickly said without turning around before walking away. I almost didn't catch it at how quietly he said it.
"Well you seem to had an eventful morning." Magnus joked as he closed the door and pulled me to him.
"Not really." I said, putting the blades down.
"Oh really?" Magnus smiled pulling me in for a kiss which I depend by nipping at his lower lip.
"Well now I have." I said with a small smile when we pulled apart.
Magnus chuckled before kissing me again. His back pressed against the-newly repaired-door as he pulled me flush against him.
"Speaking of the Calve…" Magnus looked at me questioningly as he brushed the hair out of my eyes.
I sighed and rested my forehead against his shoulder. My hands absently playing with the hem of his shirt as his hands sided into the back pockets of my pants.
"My parents seem to be too ashamed of me to tell The Clave." I said, knowing from Izzy and Jace that they still haven't done anything. And if they haven't by now they won't. And that is the only reason why they would do something like that.
"That's kind of a good thing right." Magnus said soothingly. "At least you won't be losing your marks over this. You're parents are idiots anyway." He added making me laugh.
"Yeah I guess." I said with a smile back on my face, bringing my head up and kissing him.
Happy at how easily he can make me feel better with only just a few words.
Happy he cares.
Did you like it? Tell me what you think.
Yeey I made a longer chapter. Hope you liked it. And I also hope you liked the past few kind of fluffy chapters because with the next one starts the last part of this story. It should be about ten more chapters before the end so don't worry we have more to go.
Anyway I need 15 reviews for the next one so review my lovelies.
